REMEMBERING BORK: ”Slouching Towards Gomorrah: Modern Liberalism and American Decline"

[Whirlaway]

In his 1996 book, he warned about the road America was embarking upon in neglecting its Constitutional principles, and saw doom and gloom ahead. He was grimly pessimistic about America generally, dreading modern liberalism’s grip on the nation. Liberalism, Bork insisted, was pushing America toward decline. We were headed to hell in a hand-basket. A decade after his failed confirmation, Bork authored a bestselling book tellingly titled, ”Slouching Towards Gomorrah: Modern Liberalism and American Decline.”

The title of Bork's book "Slouching Towards Gomorrah" is taken from Yeat's poem "The Second Coming," which happens to be my signature quote. Actually, in Yeat's poem it's "slouching towards Bethlehem."

The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

Is America trending liberal?

As Sammy Davis, Jr. would say (on Laugh-In):

"Ordah in da universe,
heah come da sky,
heah come da sky,
heah come da sky
ordah in da universe,
heah come da sky"

You Chicken Little teatards take the freaking cake.

seedman, if you don't know where the Borker's grave is please remain seated and silent.
